French President Macron on EU Spending, Banks M&A, China (Full Interview)

Man has the most French accent lol

A country with a limited population, gdp per capita, and small territory is going to find significant challenges with extensive and large population countries while trying to find a fair level field to trade. Countries are not equal, and thats the fundamental idea of free trade

great interview

Macron communicates easily and fluently in English. 😏

De-coupling, de-risking, now over-capacity... whatelse these Western countries can do to compete in a so-called free trade regime they created?

Macron should lead the EU. One of the most sensible EU leaders lately. Fully accepting and speeaking out that world is not the same as it was before. Macron is bringing the change that is needed for Fr (and most EU) economies, which is ageing fast and losing competitivenes fast (i.e. gatting poorer). If not for reforms, EU will fall behind the rest of the world economically. Hopefully, the wider communities will accept and understand that everyone will have to work more and harder to keep competitive

The interviewer is skilled!

Some subtitles are wrongly translated and inaccurate, which makes some of M. Macron's statements meaning different things. This should be fixed ASAP Bloomberg Television!

I like Macron. SMART man.

Anyone knows the watch Macron is wearing?

What about supply constraints of consumer markets like upper class housing, work buildings, food quality, personal and or population quality, education quality?! Flexible finance policies?!

I appreciate Macron's the short and clear discussion he try to avoid all the confuions and target right to the point.. lot of balancing act need to be done globally to avoid conflict (like war especially) which is hurting growth. More innovation and investment in space sector need to be promote. There is a huge potential but also high risk.

So well done Mr President. That journalist wasn’t really skilled at asking questions tho.

Not a fan of tariffs clearly and a fan of tariffs clearly.

When you hear " I'm support green energy" the meaning is that "I don't want to relay on USA or OPEC in my energy sector" and I always support this. Stop taking "green" energy as proclimate issue, it's always more about energy independence. The great example is Germany with their play of cheap energy and now falling into deep recession due to energy dependence on cheap gas from russia. You can see the China where government effectively balance between "green energy" and make all steps to reduce their dependence on foreign resources. The same for electric cars. Electric car it's not about green energy its about independent source of fuel (electric) which can be generated inside the country without any dependence from abroad. And that's why Europe move full electric and USA and GB screaming STOP electric and go oil car and other narrative.

EU has tough decisions to make. Follow the US down the drain or find it's own way.

3:00 bro, you can't not mention the fact that us has a lot more ressources (land, oil, minerals) and that plays a lot in energy prices and raw materials, for competition. It's not as simple as saying some countries are lazy and not others

With love from Ukraine! Respect MACRON
